. What do
you make of the confluence of the following "natural"
developments:

drought, prolonged, protracted
drought encompassing a massive portion of the United States;

flooding, extreme
rainfall and floods devastating large areas of the United States, and areas
historically not associated with heavy rainfall;

fires, brush fires and forest
fires ravaging large areas of the United States, and with a couple months of
fire season yet remaining;

regions ravaged by tornados, hurricanes, wind shear, hail storms....

These are only a few of the types of "natural" signs visited upon
the USofA in recent years; these so-called natural events, aka "acts of
God," have brought about the loss of multitudes of farms and ranches, due
to massive crop failure and the loss of grazing and thus livestock over the past few years?

In addition to the so-called "natural" events which have ravaged
this nation have been the "cultural" "societal" developments
of rampant perversion of judgment and justice which has
typified the United States and its Judicial system for decades; the sexual
corruption which has become endemic to American society; the plaque of violence
which the perverse judicial system, and all of its enablers have spawned for
decades....

Question: could there be a connection between the so-called
"natural" events, and the "cultural" "societal"
developments? You understand that absent the God of the Bible there would
be no such connection, there would merely be coincidence.

. We no
longer live in the so-called "dark ages." We know better than to
believe in "religious superstitions"...unless of course those
superstitions are just that, in which case we display the greatest reverence for
them.

But if we were so "backwards," "ignorant," and
"uninformed," as to have a Biblical perspective with regard to
developments in the United States over the past half-century in particular, we
would recognize and understand that the "natural" and
"unnatural" developments in this nation over that span of time are
directly, inseparably linked, and we would recognize that the anti-godliness and
anti-humaneness which have prevailed in this nation over the past half-century
have bled this nation for decades; occasioned the torturous murder of
multitudes of children (typically girls), of adolescent girls, of young women, and
of
younger women; and brought this terribly proud nation to the brink of
overflowing destruction.

Of course here in the USofA Today, we are not so backwards as to think such
things, so we will continue to ignore God, and rush blindly, ignorantly, optimistically, positively,
prosperously, enthusiastically towards the precipice...until the nation is no more. And then
what; those who survive will ask "What happened," "Why did such a thing
happen," "How could such a thing happen," "Why us,"
????

Occasionally
I think while standing up, walking, or even chewing gum, though I can't say I
necessarily do my best thinking while exerting myself in these ways - Editor/Ed.

Boys are so silly, I prefer to do my deep thinking,
reflection, ruminating, and meditation, while I am reclining at length in the
tub, preferably with several servants to attend to my every whim and need.
[One must be careful to only think in moderation while soaking, though, lest one
should turn into a prune!] Umm, I wonder if those silly hunky stone-age
boys are thinking about me? If they think they can use me like I'm some
worthless disposable thing, they've got another thing coming!

{No, bathing beauty. If I had a lady like you to think
about (but a little less "hard-bodied"), I wouldn't manage to think of anything else. It is true, God does
work in mysterious ways.}
